Huh. That could have been interesting.
It could have if they had made the reference in a more respectful way.
They did a great job of parodying Frank Miller narration.
The Mirage Turtles were treated like badasses in Forever.

I dont actually think this was made with malice towards the original. Its just following the current trend for dark teen dramas. CW is no stranger to the genre and likely just want to capitalize on the success of Riverdale and Winx while pulling in potential viewers from the Arrowverse crowd with the superhero trappings.
That its Powerpuff girls at all is most likely due to it just being a currently inactive IP that checks the right boxes at a surface level glance.

Wait, was Winx successful? I legitimately don't know how well it did viewership-wise, but I remember the reviews were unanimously negative.

Disney100 Marathon | DreamWorks MarathonOh yeah. It uh got a fairly large viewership.
Basically Bile Fascination helped.

You say that but at least Winx Saga and Riverdale didn’t have the gall to imply their original creators whitewashed two characters out of bigotry as seen with that “whitewashed” comment in the script.

Check out Rogues Gallery Transplant: The GameOhhhh. I just got that.
Yeah, that is Unfortunate Implications out the wazoo.
Jawbreakers on sale for 99¢Writers tend to not have input on casting decisions, so I doubt this reading was intentional, but man does this script make Drake look like he has absolutely no standards at all that he shamelessly approved a show that changed him from a Black man into a white one.

There was a comment on a Know Your Meme page about this reboot where someone suggested that this was a plot by one of the girl’s enemies to defeat them. By dragging their names through the mud. Honestly the idea of this reboot being revealed to be a ploy to ruin the girls is more entertaining than the reboot itself.
Heck the idea of a show where the setting is changed to that of a dark teen drama and it being treated as a sign that something is wrong would be really fun to see.
Imagine a sequel to Ben 10 (2016) where everything is gloomy and many other dark teen things are abound. There are sudden retcons that along with making it more angsty and depressing also coincidentally make it more in line with the classic continuity like Petropia being destroyed, Phil Billings being an amoral con man, Kevin’s dad being dead, the Adaptational Heroism of the Incurseans as seen in Ben 10 Versus the Universe: The Movie no longer being a thing, and a different art style as part of the changes to the universe. While Ben hasn’t realized it yet, he and a few others feel that something seems off. It culminates in Xingo appearing and trying and succeeding at getting to Ben that he realizes that someone has altered the universe to become “another one of those crummy teen dramas” maybe the first season is dedicated to restoring the universe back to the way it was with Ben and a different lineup (Swampfire, Feedback, Walkatrout, Upchuck, Ghostfreak, Chromastone, and some original aliens) gathering up allies to help with restoring the universe and finding out who caused this alteration to happen.

Check out Rogues Gallery Transplant: The GameHow ironic. Alan Moore wrote Watchmen as a one-off experiment, just to mess around once depicting how weird it would be in real life to put on a spandex costume and punch out criminals. Readers would go "whoa, that's messed up" then go back to playing with their colorful toys of folks in underwear fighting space turtles, or so he thought.
Instead readers took it as the standard for all superheroes, and so now the underwear is made of Kevlar and the space turtles commit war crimes.
Prayer circle for W.I.T.C.H. and Totally Spies!
A Totally Spies! show on the CW would just be making all the subtext text. And doing that might be too much for network television.

The Totally Spies reboot, coming soon only on Pornhub.

Disney100 Marathon | DreamWorks MarathonSo, a high budget porn series made by Playboy as an answer to HBO GOT?

The show was meant to be an Alternate Universe where Dick Hardly stole the Chemical X formula but someone mixed up scripts
Prettiest Meta Knight Gijinka, ngl
